ACT  I. 

Opens  on  a  public  place  in  Florence.  In  tlie  distance  the  Gov- 
ernment's palfice.  On  the  riijht'tho  entrance  to  a  church.  Groups 
of  Guelfes  and  Gibelins  led,  the  formers  by  Corso,  the  latter  by 
Vieri  threaten  and  defy  one  another.  Thev  are  surrounded  by  meli 
and  women  of  the  people.  The  day  is  that  of  the  election  of  the 
Chief  Magistrate  of  the  <. ity,  aud  both  parties  are  confident 
of  their  success.  Enters  Dante  who  re])roaches  them  with  their  in- 
cessant quarrels  and  begs  thom,  ius'ead,  unite  their  efforts  against 
the  enemies  of  their  country.  Guelf.s  and  Gibelins  laughVat  him, 
but  the  people  listen  aud  advises  Dante  to  present  himself  as  a  can- 
didate at  the  election.  They  all  enter  the  ])alace  except  Daule. 
Dante  then  meets  Simeoue  jianli,  an  old  friend  of  his,  who  re- 
]^roaehes  him  for  his  long  absence  and  informs  him  that  he  is  be- 
trothed to  a  lovely  maiden,  whose  charms  he  exalts  .so  much  that 
Dante's  criosity  is  awakened,  he  asks  B.irdi  who  she  is  and  learns 
that  she  is  Beatrice  Portarini,  whom  her  father  has  promised  him 
for  a  signalled  service  rendered,  whom  he  loves  and  by  whom  lie 
kuew  he  was  loved  before  he  left  Floreuce.  Dante  gives  way  to 
despair  and  leaves  the  scene.  Enters  Beatrice  and  Gemma  her 
friend.  Beatrice  confesses  to  Genniia  that  she  has  always  loved 
Dante  and  would  rather  die  than  be  married  to  Bardi.  She  has 
scarcely  uttered  these  word»,  when  tlie  people  return  from  the 
palace  and  shout  the  name  of  Daii'e  who  has  been  elected  Prior  of 
the  City.  Dante  appears  brought  back  by  Bardi  and  is  seen  by 
Beatrice.  The  poet  refuses  the  honor  proferred  but  Beatrice  appeals 
rohini  and  tells  him  that  it  is  his  duty  to  devote  himself  to  his 
country  and  that  he  will  find  his  reward  in  love.  Dante  understands 
that  Beatrice  loves  him  yet,  he  accepts  the  dignity  of  Grand  Prior, 
and  after  exhorting  the  Florentines  to  cease  their  quarrels  and  unite 
against  their  enemies,  and  he  is  vested  with  the  rich  mantel  of  the 
Pri'T  of  Florence.

My  tenderness  is  not  so  insane. 
That  it  has  not  seen  the  treason!

Ah  !  You  accuse  without  reason  ! 
Beatrice  at  this  hour 

Is  ignorant  of  what  I  do.   but  she  weeps, 
.\nd  I  sec  her  face  growing  paler  every  day 
Forgot  her  promise  !

Yes,  If  I  release  her. 
As  soon  as  I  shall  have  spoken 
On  her  palcil  lips 
The  last  smile  will  return. 
Ye-s,  her  eyes  whose  charms 
Have  conquered  my  weak  heari. 
If  I  dry  their  tears. 
Will  soon  recover  their  pristine  sweetness! 
Hut  thou  hast  well  understood  it,  faithful  uicsen- 

Then  we  shall  see  her  radiant  and  light  hearted, 

Running  to  her  lover  and  falling  into  his  arms.

To  him  she  gave  her  heart  in  her  childhood.

Alas!   My  soul  is  wounded,

And  it  is  Daute  whom  1  love.

C'HŒiK   Des  Ancks. 
Gloire  à  celui   qui  rayonne  ! 
BEATRICE. 
Si  la  tâche  n'est  pas  finie 
Que  doit  remplir  le  l)icn-aim<5, 
Le  Maître  sera  désarme 
Par  sa  constance  et  son  génie 
Et  nous  serons  réunis  au  séjour  d'adieux 
D'allégre.s.'-e  infinie 
Et  d'éternel  amour. 
DANTE. 
Béatrice!     Entends-moi  ! 

CH(Etl!. 

Gloire  à  celui  qui  rayonne. 
Zavoix  liimineuse  s'tleint.     Le  rideau  de  nuages  re- 
monte, r obacurcité envaliit  dt  noureaii  la  scène. 

DANTE. 

Ah,  plus  rien  !  Dans  l'espace 

Tout  se  tait  !  Tout  s'etiace, 

Tout  est  noir 
Oui  !  tu  l'as  dit  Béatrice 
Je  pourrai   te   revoir. 
Fin  du  troisième  acte  et  du  rêve  de  Dante. 


ACTE  IV. 


Même  décore  qu'à  l'acte  précédent.  Au  lever  du 
rideau  Dante  est  toujours  endormi  prés  du 
tombeau  de  Virgile.  Le  jour  commence  à, 
venir. 

Chœur  daxs  la  Coulisse.   DANTE,   BARDI, 
Ux  Patke. 


Ah! 


Chœuk. 


Bardi  parait  à  droite.  Un  petit  p.ltro  qui  le  pré- 
cède lui  désigne  du  doigt  Dante,  toujours 
endormi,  et  s'éloigne.  Bardi  l'ait  ([UeUiues 
pas,  puis  s'arrête,  n'osant  l'aboider.  Dante 
se  réveille.  Il  promène  d'abord  un  regard 
étonné  autour  de  lui.  Puis,  se  retournant,  il 
se  redresse  et  lève  les  yeux  vers  le  ciel  teint 
de  rose . 

DANTE. 
Voici  que  l'aurore  se  lève. 
Le  brouillard  matinal  se  dissipe  dans  l'air. 
Soudain  il  se  rappelle.     Sa  figure  s'illumine. 
Ah!  le  merveUleus  rêve 
Que  j'ai  fait. 
Vante  aoerçoit  Hardi  et  recvle  d'un  pas. 

Lui suis-ie  encore  en  enfer?  ^ 

BARDI. 
Pardonnez-moi.  ..je  sui|  indigne  et  coupable. 
D'aveugle  colère^nvahi 

J'ai  tout  blessé,  j'ai  tout  trahi 

Du  courroux  qui  m'accable 
Trop  juste  est  la  rigueur. 
Pouitant,  pardonnez-moi.     Le  repentir  est  entré 

[dans  mon  cœur. 


DANTE . 
The  voice  of  Beatrice  in  tlie  celestial  paths. 

C'lIOItUS  l)V  ANliELS. 

Glory  to  him  who  shines! 
BEATRICE. 
If  the  task  is  not  ended 
That  the  loved  one  must  accomplish. 
The  master  will  be  disarmed 
By  his  constancy  and  genious. 
And  we  shall  be  reunited  in  the  resplendent 
Of  infinite  joyfulness  [realms. 

And  eternal  love. 

DANTE. 
Beatrice,  hear  me  ! 

Chouus. 
Glory  to  him  who  shines  l 
The   ^uminou■^i   r-inion    disappears.     The  curtain   of 
clouds  rises  again  and  the  scene  resumes  its  ob- 
scurity. 

DANTE. 

Ah,  no  more  !     In  space 

All  is  silent!    All  is  effaced, 
All  is  black  ! 

Yes,  thou  hast  said  it  Beatrice, 
I  may  see  thee  again . 

End  of  Act  HI  and  of  Daniels  Dream. 


ACT  IV. 


f^ame  scenery  as  in  the  preceeding  act.  As  the 
curtain  rises  Dante  stUl  sleeps  near  Virgil's 
tomb.     Day  commences  to  break. 

Chorus  Behind  the  Scenes,  DANTE,  BABDI, 
A  Shepiiei:d. 

Chorus. 
Ah! 
Bardi  appears  on  the  right.      A  little  shepherd 
boy  who  precedes  him  designates  the  sleep- 
ing   Dante    with    his    finger    and   departs, 
liardi    advances   some  steps  aud  stops,   not 
ilariug  to  accost  him.      Dante  awakes.     He 
first  casts  a  surprised  look  around  him.    Then, 
turning  around  ,  he  straightens  himself  and 
lifts  his  eves  to  the  roseate  sky. 
DANTE. 
Aurora  is  rising;. 
The  morning  mist  is  dispelled  in  the  air. 
Suddenlij  he  remembers.     His  face  brightens. 
Ah  !  "The  miraculous  dream 
I  have  had. 

Dante  perceives  Hardi  andrecoils  a  step. 
He!  Ami  still  in  hell? 
BAEDI. 
Pardon  me  !  I  was  unworthy  and  guilty 
Carried  away  by  blind  anger, 
I  have  wounded  all,  I  have  betrayed  all  ! 
Of  the  blame  which  crushes  me, 
The  rigor  is  but  too  just. 
Yet  pardon  me.      Repentance  has  entered  my 

[heart.

Linceul  des  tr<?sors  à  jamais  perdtis. . . . 

Assez  de  lys  blancs  sont  ouverts  dans  l'ombre, 

Qu'importe  A  l'autel  une  fleur  do  plus. 

Le  ciel  ue  saurait  reprendre   à.  son  Ame 

Ce  qui  peut  rester  de  bonheur  humain 

.  Pour  moi  ses  regards  ont  si  pure  flamme 

J'ai  tant  de  douceur  à  presser  sa  main, 

O  toi  qu'en  secret  sa  douleur  ri^clame, 

Ange  de  la  mort  poursuis  ton  chemin  ! 

Ne  fais  pas  si  tOt  ses  paupières  closes, 

Son  beau  front  baigné  de  pleurs  superflus. 

Les  champs  de  repos  ont  assez  de  roses, 

Qu'importe  à  la  tombe  une  fleur  de  plus. 

SCENE  IL 

Entre  Béairici-. 
BEATRICE,  GEMMA. 
Gemma  court  au  deranl  de  Beatrice. 
BEATRICE. 

Je  viens  te  retronv.tr. 

Gemma  diriije  Béatrice  en  la  soutenant,  rem  li  banc 
situé  à  droite. 

Ta  pauvre  Béatrice 
Ne  saurait  sans  qu'elle  faiblisse. 

Demeurer  bien  loutemps  ù,  genoux 

Et  lo  vœu 
Qui  devait  me  lier  à  Dieu 
Est  remis  jusqu'au  temps  où  je  serai  plus  forte. 
GEMMA,  ehayant  de  sourire. 

C'est-jl-dire  ù.  bientôt. 
Séatriee  se  lève  brusquement  arec  une  expression  d'ef- 
froi sur   le  visage  comme  si  nue  vision  sinistre 
apparaissait  })uis  elle  retombe  sur  le  banc   et  sa 
figure  reprend  un  air  doux  et  résigne. 
BEATRICE. 

Oui  bientôt 
Je  serai  tout  à.  lui Mais  là-haut. 

GEMMA. 

Ah,  que  tu  me  fais  mal  à  parler  de  la  sorte  ! 

Ton  cœur  ne  doit  pas  se  fermer 

A  l'espoir  dos  jours  qui  vont  suivre, 

Conserve  eiicor  désir  de  vivre 

Pour  qui  toujours  saura  t'aiiner, 

Non — ton  cœnrue  doit  pas  se  fermer. 

BEATRICE. 

Ah!     C'est  trop  pleurer  c'est  trop  soutt'rir 

L'espoir,  le  courage  en  moi  tout  s'tqiiiise 

Mon  dme  agonise 

Lai.sse  moi  mourir, 

Pourquoi  me  plaindre  et  t'al.armer 

De  nos  maux  la  mort  nous  délivre 

Mon  cœur  no  peut  plus  vivre 

Puisqu'il  n'a  pas  hélas  !  le  droit  d'aimer. 

C'est  trop  pleurer. 

C'est  trop  souftrir! 

Ab<  Gemma  laisse-moi  mourir. 

GEMMA. 

Oui,  c'est  troj)  souffrir. 
Dieu  prendra  pitié. 
Tu  ne  poux  mourir. 


De.ath  cover  of  treasures  forever  lost! 

There  are  enough  wliite  lilies  open  in  the  shade, 

What  matter  to  the  Lord  for  one  more  flower. 

Heaven  cannot  take  from  lier  soul 

What  may  remain  of  human  happini^'is 

For  me  her  eyes  have  so  pure  a  flame. 

I  am  so  happy  to  jircss  her  hand  ! 

Oh  thou  whom  her  sorrow  iu  se<ret  demamis, 

Angel  of  death  pass  on  your  way, 

Do  not  have  so  soon  her  ovelids  close. 

Her  beautiful  forehead  crowned  with  superfluous 

The  fields  of  repose  have  enough  roses     [flowers. 

What  matters  to  the  tomb  one  flower  more. 

SCENE  II. 

Enters  /Un trice. 
BEATRICE,  GEMMA. 

Gemma  mus  to  meet  Beatrice. 
BKATRICE. 
I  come  to  mei't  thee  again. 
Gemma  support»   llcutrice  to  the  bench  on  the  right. 

Thy  poor  Beatrice 
Cannot  without  fainting. 

Remain  very  long  on  her  knees 

Anil  the  vow 
AVhich  was  to  give  me  to  (iod 
Is  postponed  until  I  shall  be  strong, 
GEMMA,  trying  to  smile. 
Which  will  be  soon. 
Beatrice  rises  snddenTij  with  an  expression  of  terror 
on  her  face  as   if  a  sinister  rision  appeared   to 
her;  then  she  fulls  back  on   the  bench  and  her 
figure  resumen  a  gentle  and  resigned  air. 
BEATRICE. 

Yes  soon . 
I  shall  be  all  his....    But  above. 

GEMMA. 
Ah,  how  thou  grievest  me  to  speak  thus. 
Thy  heart  must  not  close 
To  the  hope  of  the  days  which  will  follow, 
Keep  still  the  wish  to  live 
For  him  who  will  always  love  thee, 
No. . .  .thy  heart  must  not  close. 

BEATRICE. 
Ah  !    This  is  too  much  weeping  and  suffering, 
Hope,  courage,  all  are  exhausted  in  me, 

My  soul  is  agonizing 

Lot  me  dii'. 
Why  complain  and  alarm  thee. 
Death  delivers  us  from  our  sorrows. 
My  heart  can  no  longer  live 
Since  it  lias  not,  al.is,  the  right  to  love. 

This  is  too  much  wecjting, 

Too  iiiiuh  to  sntfer. 

Ah  !  Gemma  let  me  die. 
GEMMA. 

Yes  this  is  tuo  much  to  suffer,  ' 

God  will  take  pity. 
Thou  canst  not  die.

Beatrice. 
Gemma  goes  to  meet  Hardi  wh>  has  entered  behind

Be  blebsud,  gracious  Lord.

Oh  the  inexpressible  and  pure  joy 
Of  a  brolven  but  always  loving  heart, 
Here  is  the  end  of  her  distress,  , 
Be  blessed,  gracious  Lord. 

BARDl. 
I  struck  them  in  their  love 
By  iin  unworthy  misdeed. 
My  remorse  has  caused  their  joy, 
Pardon  me,  gracious  Lord. 
DANTE. 
My  loved  one,  nothiug  any  longer  separates  us. 
BEATRICE. 
What  sayest  thou  Î 
Dante  points  to  Bardi  whom  Beatrice  has  net  yet 
seen. 

DANTE. 
He  who  did  the  evil  to-day  repairs  it. 
Béatrice  gives  her  hand  to  Sitneone  who  kisses  if, 
tv'.thout  being  able  to  say  a  word,  and  then  goes 
out  with  Gemma,  leaving  the  two  lovers  alone.

SCENE  FINALE. 

Les  Precedets,  GEMMA,  BARDI. 

Elle  fait  qnelqiies  pas  mais  soudain  elle  tressaille 

et  porte  la  main  il  son  creur  comme  si  elle  le 

sentait  se  briser.      KUe  chancelle,   sa  tftte 

tombe  sur  l'épaule  de  Dante  qui  la  soutient. 

BEATRICE. 
Ah  !  Dieu  !  Pardonne  ami . 
Je  ne  puis. 

DANTE,  arec  épouvante. 
Qn'est-ce  donc  1    Cher  auge  ! 

Soigneur 

{Silence  de  Uéatrice  éranouie .  Oemma  et  Sardi  ac- 
courent.) 

Veuez voyez  cette  pâleur  étrange, 

Et  ces  yeux  fermés  à  dimi. 
Tous  Titois. 
Béatrice  entends-nous  ! 

Beatrice  revient  peu  à  peu  à  elle. 
BEATRICE,  a i»on/e. 
Le  rêve  était  trop  beau  pour  q'i'ici  bas 
Le  ciel  permette  qu'il  s'achève...  Je  vais  mourir, 

Mais  dans  tes  bras. 
\  DANTE. 

Mourir toi ... .  non. ...  je  no  veux  pas 

Ma  Béatrice. 
Béatrice  rappelant  8C8  forcet  rcfjarâe  autour  d'elle, 
puis  fuit  quelques  pas  rera  la  ehapelie;  elle  joint 
ses  mains,  son  risage  prend  vue  expression  exta- 
tique, son  reyard  est  leré  vers  le  ciel,  elle  semble 
déjà  ne  plus  appartenir  à  la  terre. 

BEATRICE. 
Je  vais  dans  l'azur  sans  vo  les, 
Oit  les  anges  de  leurs  mains 
Becueillent  les  pleurs  hmnains 
Pour  les  ch.anger  en  étoiles. 

D.\NTE,  se  rappelant  son  ri)re. 
La  parole  entendue  aux  célestes  chemiiis. 

BEATRICE,  d'une  voix  entrecoupée.. 
Et  nous  seront  unis. . . .  Au  radieux  séjour, 
Dans  l'extase  supremo  et  l'éternel  amour. 
DANTE,  sanglotant. 

Elle  est  morte ô  nu»  t. 

Emporte  aussi  mon  Ame. 

GEMMA,  à  Dante. 
Hélas  !  ta  blessure  est  cruelle, 
.S  ais  la  muse  e^t  fidèle. 
Et  s';.ura  l'apaiser. 
DANTE,  ««  redressant  illuminé.' 
Oui,  je  dois  vivre  cncor. 
Je  dois  cliauter  pour  elle. . . . 
Dieu  l'a  f  lite  iiiimortello.

So  much  flame. 

At  the  instant  wlien  we  believe 

To  look  np  ;'.t  its  rays 

In  our  soul  I 
Ah  I  we  shall  both  depart  together, 

Far  from  mankind. 
Let  us  depart  !  Let  us  depart  I 

FINAL  SCENE. 
The  Sasie,  GEMMA,  BARDI. 
Beatrice  vralks  some  steps,  but  suddenly'  she 
shudders  a  d  places  her  hand  on  her  heart 
as  if  she  felt  it  break.  She  totters,  her  hc:td 
falls  on  the  shoulders  of  Dante,  vrho  sup- 
ports her. 

BEATRICE. 

Ah,  God!   Pardon  friend 

I  cannot. 

DANTE,  terrified. 
■\\1iat  is  it  Î    Dear  angel,  Lord. 

Silence  of  Beatrice,  trho  lias  fainted;  Oemma  and 
Bardi  run  to  her. 
Come — .''eo  this  str.ange  pallor, 
Aud  these  half-closed  eyes! 
All  Thuee. 
Beatrice,  hear  us! 

Beatrice  gradually  recovers  her  senses. 
BEATRICE,  to  Dante. 
The  dream  was  too  beautiful,  that  here  below, 
Heaven  would  permit  it  to  be  accomidished. .  ..I 
But  in  thy  arms  !  [am  going  to  die 

DANTE. 

Die!  thon no,  I  cannot  suffer  it. 

My  Beatrice! 
Beatrice,  calling  hack  her  strength,  looks  around, 
then  makes  some  steps  towards  the  chapel  ;  she 
joins  her  hands,  her  face  assumes  an  eeytatic  cx- 
l>ression,  her  eyes  are  raised  to  hearen,  she 
already  looks  as  if'  no  longer  belonging  to  earth. 

BEATRICE. 
I  go  into  the  azure  without  sails 
■Where  the  angels  with  their  hands 
Collect  the  human  tears 
To  change  them  into  stars. 

DANTE,  renicmhering  his  dream. 
The  words  I  heard  in  the  celestial  regions  1 
BEATRICE,  in  a  broken  voice. 
And  we  shall  be  united. .  .in  the  radiant  sojourn. 
In  supreme  ectasy  aud  eterual  love! 
DANTE,  weening. 
She  is  dead.     Oh  Death, 
Carry  off  also  my  soul! 
GEMMA,  to  Dante. 
Alas  !    Tliy  wound  is  cniel. 
But  the  Muse  is  f.iitliful 
Aud  will  know  how  to  console  thu«. 

DANTE,  rising,  inspired. 
Yen,  I  must  still  live, 
I  must  sing  fur  lur  ! 
Ooil  has  1  reali'd  lier  immortal  ! 
I,  I  shall  immortalise  her.
